Chimneys - Chimney flues Gloucester

Chimney Flue, Repair and
Installation.

If you have no chimney in your home, an
insulated twin wall system is ideal for a new installation. The flue
systems are installed inside or outside of a building. We install this
system to allow an open fire or stove to be used where there is part of an
existing chimney, or no original chimney in place.

This system has two stainless steel
skins with insulation between the two, this allows the flue to be much closer
to combustible materials, for example, through loft spaces, joist and rafters.
They have a clearance of just 50mm from flammable materials like wooden rafters
and joists.

The installation consists of running
insulated chimney pipes up through the ceiling and through the roof. The Flue
Stestem can also be routed through an outside wall and stacked to the minimum
height specified by your building code. Local codes may require you to enclose
the flue to insulate it from the elements.

There are a variety of techniques
employed for proper flue installation in masonry chimney, including clay tiles,
concrete blocks, poured-in-place liners and stainless steel liners.
Vitrified-fired clay tile liners are used to create flues in many traditional
brick chimneys. Another material used to create flues in modern fireplace
chimneys is precast concrete chimney blocks.

Installing an External Twin Wall
Insulated Flue System

The installation process involved with
an external twin wall system depends entirely on the spec of the house, such as
ceiling height, the proximity to a ridge or gable and any local requirements.
Any external flue system must go up 600mm vertically before exiting through the
outside wall. If at 600mm the flue will exit near to a ridge or gable end then
the pipe needs to clear either by at least 600mm again. The situation in which
the flue is needed determines the length, direction, and installation
process.
